Asks : "...What happens to my old 8mm films after they have been transferred to video..." |
|
Answer : All
of your old films are cleaned during the transfer process. The
information on the films is "copied" to video or DVD. The original
films are returned to you, clean and ready for another 50+ years of
storage. We recommend storing them in a dark dry room temperature
closet. |

Asks : "...How much does a wedding video cost?" |
|
Answer : As
mentioned on our "wedding page", you generally get what you pay for
when it comes to videography. As professional wedding videographers, we
often compare our services to decisions like buying a house or car.
Each of which, offers various levels of quality and price. Please e-mail us directly for a custom quote. Thank You! |

Asks : "...why don't you have video samples on your web site?" |
|
Answer : Unless
you have a cable modem or extremely high connection speed, streaming
video is generally very choppy, slow and in my opinion frustrating.
Streaming video has great potential, but until the technology improves,
we are choosing to stay away from it. We gladly send out actual video
sample tapes to our potential clients. Thank You! |

Asks : "...why should I choose a wedding video? I like what still photos have to offer..." |
|
Answer : Excellent
point. We feel very strongly that there is a place for both video and
still photos at your event. Think of this, though. Imagine that I could
offer to you a modern day photo album of your Grandparent's wedding
day, or a modern day video with CD quality sound and crystal clear
images. You must choose only one. Which one would you choose? Luckily,
you can choose both. With today's DVD technology, your
Great-Grandchildren will likely be given that exact opportunity which I
have illustrated. So be sure to call your professional photographer...
right after you've called us! Best Wishes! |

Asks : Do your DVD's play on all DVD players? |
|
Answer : The
DVD media we currently use (as with all video companies) is DVD-R. This
is the only format available to burn small quanities of DVD's. The
DVD-R format offers DVD quality and duribility. Approximately 90% of
all new DVD players are compatible with DVD-R. Some older units or new
low cost (off brand) units may not be compatible. 100% compatiblitly is
soon expected. You can trust that your DVD will be compatible for many
years to come. |
